Took a sneaky shot of @BucNicholas conducting the @MelbSymphony last night for our @ArtoftheScore concert of Hans Zimmer’s music. What an honour it was to co-host and be part of things - thanks so much to the two sold out Hamer Hall’s worth of people who came along!

Had a chat with @aus_jewishnews about our upcoming “The Music of Hans Zimmer” shows with @MelbSymphony, @sydsymph & @ArtoftheScore on May 3/4 (Melb) and June 22-24 (Syd). #HansZimmer @ConcertLabAU
